Track 2-02: Assessment of Grassland Condition, Stability and Sustainability
Description
The relationship between environment, plant and animal is one of the most important focuses in the ecological and productive context of natural grasslands. The limited knowledge of the complexity of this environment can lead to inappropriate management strategies, determining degradation, biodiversity and productivity losses. This study is based on the concept that the best way to conserve natural grasslands is through adequate management targets.
This study aimed to identify sward management targets that maximize productivity in natural grasslands of Southern Brazil.
